in thread Deleting Temporary Internet Files

Having this sort of operation dependent on the client, i.e., the "Windoze" workstations, just isn't good. Fine if every salesman would "bring in" his/her notebook, but what if the user steps up to another workstation, . . .a home PC, for example. Do you have them "bring IT in", too?

This may not even be a Perl issue, but there should be some way, perhaps a JavaScript, generated by the Perl CGI, that could whack the associated url's in the temporary internet files directory.

Of course, I'm using $cgi->header(expires=>"-1d") to force a refresh on the document; however, clicking on the legacy url in the Windows/temporary internet files directory will restart the application if the url contains the login criteria. . . .What to do?

I'll admit that I know very little about MS/Windows, but I have discovered that the MS police will not let you copy the value of the highlighted row in the temporary internet files list to the clipboard; however, you can right-click on the row, display properties, and copy the entire url to the clipboard. Windows, . . .what a piece of work.
